TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Influence of modulated structural dynamics on the kinetics of a-chymotrypsin catalysis Insights through chemical glycosylation, molecular dynamics and domain motion analysis

Although the chemical nature of the catalytic mechanism of the serine pro-tease a-chymotrypsin (a-CT) is largely understood, the influence of the enzyme’s structural dynamics on its catalysis remains uncertain. Here we investigate whether a-CT’s structural dynamics directly influence the kinet-ics of enzyme catalysis. | ỊFEBS Journal Influence of modulated structural dynamics on the kinetics of a-chymotrypsin catalysis Insights through chemical glycosylation molecular dynamics and domain motion analysis Ricardo J.

Here we investigate whether a-CT s structural dynamics directly influence the kinetics of enzyme catalysis. Chemical glycosylation Sola RJ Griebenow K 2006 FEBS Lett 580 1685-1690 was used to generate a series of glycosylated a-CT conjugates with reduced structural dynamics as determined from amide hydrogen deuterium exchange kinetics kHX . Determination of their catalytic behavior KS k2 and k3 for the hydrolysis of N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe p-nitroanilide Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA revealed decreased kinetics for the catalytic steps k2 and k3 without affecting substrate binding KS at increasing glycosylation levels. Statistical correlation analysis between the catalytic AG k and structurally dynamic DGHX parameters determined revealed that the enzyme acylation and deacylation steps are directly influenced by the changes in protein structural dynamics. Molecular modelling of the a-CT glycoconjugates coupled with molecular dynamics simulations and domain motion analysis employing .
